My dated reference says:
1960 MGA Coupe
Parts Car: $500
Tow it home: $2,000
Looks like dog poop but runs: $3,000
Drive it home and be proud but nervous: $6,000
Pour money into it then drive to car shows and place: $10,000
Nobody would really pay this unless it's in a museum: $15,000
(I can break down the ratings into layman's terms if needed.)
